Saltwater marsh and three tidal channels to be created along Loma Alta Creek at Buccaneer Beach Park
Three tidal channels and a saltwater marsh with native plants and wildlife will be created along the Loma Alta Creek at Buccaneer Beach in Oceanside under a restoration plan approved this month by the California Coastal Commission.
Cost estimates are now about $2.2 million, but the amount could change after the project goes out to bid next spring. Construction is likely to begin next year or no later than 2025, he said. Approvals from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board were secured previously. Next on the list is the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
A possible second phase of the project is planned. However, that depends on whether the city acquires about 1 acre of additional property adjacent to the site. Much of the year, the water in the creek is stagnant. Big winter storms wash away the beach berm that grows over the summer and blocks the creek’s outlet to the ocean.
